Title: Any good responsive, modern themes?
Post by: brettuk on March 31, 2018, 06:39:24 AM
Hi,

I have been switching back and forth between SMF, MyBB and Phpbb - and I can't seem to come across a decent platform that supports human-readable URL's and has decent themes.

I found this theme for phpbb, which is perfect, however, phpbb doesn't support human readable url's.

SMF is the perfect platform however, there are no decent responsive themes.

The only one I can find is likeipb, which is ever so slightly responsive, however, looks like it was created in the 1990's.

Does anyone know of any decent themes?

Thanks

Depends on what you mean by 'decent'

I think of 'functional and reliable' so good old Responsive Curve does it for me, so I haven't looked further.

Sounds like you mean "pretty" ?

A nice modern looking responsive theme:

Check out www.fedupwithliberals.com.  I'm using the deep blue theme from Desktek. Its fully responsive for tablets and phones.

I've tinkered around with several on client forums, best one so far has been Mobile-Desktop (https://custom.simplemachines.org/themes/index.php?lemma=2801).  The code's a bit unconventional, but once you figure it out it's not too difficult to customize.  Don't like the icon menu in Responsive Curve.  Can be fixed to display normal menu buttons, but there are other glitches, and it only works with default Curve.

I also like www.smftricks.com

I use their LikeIPB theme with a couple custom modifications that they did for me.
